Following the success of his earlier films - including Talk Straight:
The World of Rural Queers/Ich Kenn Keinen - Allein unter Heteros
which won him the Teddy and East/West - Sex & Politics (released
in cinemas last year) - Hick's back in the Berlinale official selection

Tom Weise, a 'small guy' who made it big in the NYC escort scene
with a successful online rent boy business and wild, wild Hustlaball

and crevices in his protagonist's carapace: digging a bit deeper,
beneath the smooth skin of convenient surfaces. (...)
